Hawthorne Sixth Grader is Alternate to Southeast MN Final Spelling Competition

Hawthorne sixth grader, Katie Boettcher, took first place in our school spelling competition. She then moved on to take first place in the district spelling competition against fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth graders.  She then went on to compete against students throughout southern Minnesota on February 15 in Rochester.  Against 31 other students, Katie came in seventh place which placed her as the alternate to move on to the Southeast Minnesota Final. Katie will step in if one of the other six finalist is not able to compete for any reason.

Katie has represented herself, her family, the district and Hawthorne School extremely well.  We are so proud of her.  CONGRATULATIONS, KATIE!!!!!
